Abstract excerpt
The bacterial translocon interacts with both SecA-bound preproteins and nascent chain-ribosome complexes during Sec and signal recognition particle-dependent protein translocation, respectively. In their inactive state, translocons are saturated with ribosomes and SecA protein, reflecting the inherent affinity of these components for one another. We found that SecA and ribosomes are bound simultaneously and...
